48 is the sum of 20 and Jenny score use the variable j to represent Jenny score translate the sentence into an equation
To translate the given sentence into an equation, we need to represent Jenny's score with a variable (let's use "j") and state that it is the sum of 20 and the value of j itself.
The equation can be written as follows:
j + 20 = 48
In this equation, j represents Jenny's score, and the sum of 20 and j is equal to 48.
48 = 20 + j
so
j = 48 - 20
j = 28
